A two-week-old baby orangutan has made her shining debut at Chicago’s Brookfield Zoo – and she is very cute.
Zoo officials say the unnamed female Bornean orangutan was born on December 20 to 35-year-old Sophia and father Ben and made her first public appearance on Tuesday at the zoo’s Tropic World: Asia habitat.
Here she is.
She can be seen at the zoo most mornings clinging to her mother’s chest.
The baby’s birth is a boon for orangutans which are a critically endangered species.
Hooray for heart-warming news again!
